First, there is no age forbidding going out for pizza or to a movie. Age of consent is about sexual activity. Once a person is 17 (in Louisiana, each state has its own arbitrary number) they can consent to sexual activity with other people over 17. There are exceptions if you work at the younger person's school. If she were under 17 it would be a crime for a person more than 2 years older to perform sexual activity with her.
